A method of coating a substrate which comprises coating a substrate with the composition comprising n a) an organoborane/amine complex wherein the amine is selected from the group of amines having an amidine structural component; aliphatic heterocycles having at least one nitrogen in the heterocyclic ring; an alicyclic compound having bound to the ring a substituent having an amine moiety; primary amines which in addition to a primary amine have one or more hydrogen bond accepting groups of an ether, polyether, thioether or halogen wherein there is an alkylene chain of at least two carbon atoms between the primary amine and the hydrogen bond accepting group, and conjugated imines; n b) one or more of monomers, oligomers or polymers having olefinic unsaturation, and n c) an effective amount of a compound which causes the complex to disassociate; together under conditions such that polymerization is initiated. |
